EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Jamaica House, a magnificent Jacobean house that once stood proudly at the north end of Cherry Garden Street in Bermondsey, south London. The image offers two views - one from the garden front and another from Cherry Garden Street itself. Built in 1826 and named after the newly acquired island of Jamaica, this architectural gem was unfortunately demolished during the latter half of the 19th century. However, through this photograph, we are granted a glimpse into its former glory. The composition exudes an air of elegance as it captures the grandeur of Jamaica House's exterior. The balconies gracefully adorn its facade while an avenue leads to its entrance, inviting visitors into a world steeped in history. Edward Walford's publication "Old and New London: A Narrative of Its History, Its People, And Its Places" provides valuable insight into this lost treasure. This monochrome depiction not only serves as a visual record but also sparks curiosity about life within these walls during the 17th and 19th centuries. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time by an unknown creator, we can't help but marvel at how architecture has shaped our cities throughout history. It is a testament to Britain's rich heritage and reminds us to cherish our past even as progress continues to shape our future.
